So I've been doing research on my new computer I'm building and I've come to a stump. I keep running into mixed news and articles and can no longer make up my own mind. Is the i5-7600k going to be a good processor for casual gaming and streaming as compared to the 100$ difference of having an i7-7700k?

All of the websites say that the only need for an i7-7700k would be for video/photo editing and maybe complex games that can take advantage of the multi-thread that the i7 has where as the i5 is better for a budget.

>> Decide what CPU I get to put in my computer.

Also if you have opinions on graphics cards, I'd love to hear them. I'm currently looking at GTX 1080.

Ryzen
>>
1080 for gaming if that's your budget is a good choice unless you can find a vega64 at MSRP and undervolt it, for CPUs though especially for streaming you should be looking at the 1600/X 1700/x

I would run with a Ryzen but I've already gotten an Intel Motherboard
>>
>>62056818
1600X/1700X For streaming.. 1080 will do you fine and you can get a water block for it later on for around 100$ to extend its lifespan just make sure if you buy ryzen to buy 3200mhz or better ram
>>
Get a new i5 they're like 6 cores 12 threads. That's over 3x faster than previous i5s with only 4 cores and 4 threads.
>>
OP here. This is the current Build as to date with your responses. I've already gotten several products in the mail marked as Purchased. My only main issue is still deciding i7 vs i5. Though a lot of people keep telling me Ryzen. Maybe its worth a new Mobo (though i thought i did good with the one i got) to change the chipset?
>>
If you can't figure this out on your own you don't need the extra cores or anything else for that matter... Just go outside.

Why are you even here? go on leddit or some shintel forum. They'll set you up with some nice grills.
>>
>>62056818
get the i5 and then a 1070 for 1440p

>>62057001

Nice Troll build.
7600k with a B250 motherboard
$177 for 16 GB of 2666 MHz ram
Buying windows
>>
>>62057029
Open to suggestions. That's my legitimate build
>>
>>62056818
$100 is not a lot of money really. just spend it.

> the extra cores
what
>>
>>62057052
Return the motherboard and heatsink, get a B350 and 1600. You could probably buy a set from microcenter for a decent price, especially if you consider open box.

Either use the ram or find a better kit for cheaper, No way you should be spending $177 for that. So find a kit that's the same and cheaper or spend the same and get something faster.

Also even if you kept the motherboard then there's no real reason to get a K series processor since your motherboard doesn't allow overclocking.
>>
>>62056904
return it..
>>
>>62056818
Good goy
>>
>>62056927
you are retarded and dont come back
>>
>>62057029
You can get a windows license for like $10 and it's better than some running super shady code
>>
>>62057052
Return mobo and get a 240 mobo cpu combo with 1600/x and b350.
buy the cheapest 2666mhz ram and gpu doesnt matter right now
>>
>>62058228
Yea, but this guy is buying it for $100
>>
>>62056904
Return it you dumb cunt
>>
>>62056904
Honestly for streaming games its best you get a ryzen. And don't waste your money on windows>>62058232
